TRUST ME ON THIS ONE

2010-02-27T18:37:00.007+01:00

you're welcome to another brand new evening. i was going through the news and found out that the wife of the PRESIDENT of the federal republic of NIGERIA is going to be the acting president. you can imagine them Hausas again running the country like its some FAMILY BUSINESS or a BIRTHRIGHT. since when did the FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF NIGERIA turn into the FEDERAL REPUBLIC OF HAUSA. why the hell do we need this shit from them again in this TWENTY-FIRST CENTURY. they ran this country down when it was under the AUTOCRATIC MILITARY REGIME now we are in a DEMOCRATIC REGIME and they are still OBSESSED with destroying this nation. i love my Hausa friends but what their sub-region is doing to this country is making me feel that we are better off without each other, we keep blaming them for almost everything and i know, i'm not going to lie about the other DE-REPPING Nigeria is suffering due to the south but the truth there is that from the outset Nigeria as in the north and south was never meant to be a country. look at the way we've been carrying on with each other like we HATE each other. if a northerner and a southerner are in another country and there is a disagreement and they were to choose who to support they'd choose the inhabitants of that country rather than themselves from the same country.
TRUST ME, i love this country to pieces but it breaks my heart every time that i SEE/HEAR this crap is going on every time and we can't stop it. i remember when i heard that Nigeria will DISINTEGRATE in so so so year i was like fuck it man. these people are trying SO HARD to see us fail/fall (whichever floats your boat). well, like i already said that was THEN because right now i'm not so sure of Nigeria as a nation anymore. i'm so scared that the country NIGERIA i once called mine won't be any longer and TRUST ME it won't be far too long that, that will happen. how i wish these IDIOTS that think that ruling this country is BIRTHRIGHT rather than a duty will see that they are running this country in to the gallows and TRUST ME, i'm not trying to be an English linguist or prophet of doom like most of us that are naive and TOO STUPID to see, would say or think i am. Praying for this country isn't going to solve this matter. if you like, tell me i have LITTLE FAITH. that's your shit load of thought. the issue here is that if we do not find a solution fast then we might as well sit down and watch as this country TEAR INTO PIECES like its already doing.

oh God i can't wait for the day that i will have the REPUBLIC OF SOUTHERN NIGERIA as my nationality. call me what you want but i'm going to tell you how it its. TRUST ME, its just a matter of two years tops and we are THROUGH as a nation. by then we'd have had ENOUGH of each other and it'll be time for us to go our VERY SEPARATE WAYS. TRUST ME, i know what i'm saying. the only thing i don't know is how many PARTS we are going to be at the END OF THE DAY and which part is going to be the most industrialized first. Nigeria is going to be FIFTY this year and this might be the very last JUBILEE (if you know what i'm saying) its/she (whichever floats your boat) going to have. so my dearies celebrate this one with all your might because NIGERIA WILL SOON CEASE TO BE A NATION/REPUBLIC/NAME IT and when that time comes we should be prepared.

TRUST ME ON THIS. I KNOW WHAT I'M WRITING.

RANTINGS OF AN INSECURE PRICK

2010-02-21T01:52:00.004+01:00

I got this from one of my favorite blogs lindaikeji.blogspot.com and there was this post on a Nigerian artiste KC PRESH (or whatever their name is). Well on ONE of them. The "K" of the group was talking or should I say bragging about his WHAT THE FUCK WE DON'T GIVE A SHIT ABOUT engagement

Instead of this dude to just come out and say I'M ENGAGED and we'll all say CONGRATS. The dude kept going on about his THIS and THAT and WTF? Does he seriously think we care about it? Maybe he was just hungry for some attention. Well, here are the excerpts of the CRAP he said.

"The ring I gave my fiancee is pure diamond (supposedly worth $20, 000).
YEAH RIGHT.
The date has not been fixed for the wedding yet but we have done our introduction. We did that in my fiancee's father's Okota home in Lagos this January. The engagement was in Dubai, the choice was Dubai because I wanted to surprise her. I told her we were going to Dubai on holiday and we stayed at the tallest hotel in the world, the popular 7 star hotel in Dubai, Burj Al Arab Hotel.
I SUPPOSE THE CHEAPEST OF THE CHEAP ROOMS.
The hotel room rates starts from $1, 767. 66.
LOL, EVEN TO THE FUCKING CENTS. NIGERIANS HOW MUCH OF THE SHIT ARE WE GOING TO CONTINUE DOING TO OURSELVES?
I hired a parachute
WHAT?!!!!!!!! WHO USES A PARACHUTE TO PROPOSE? K HONEY IN CASE YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT A PARACHUTE IS OR MIGHT HAVE FORGOTTEN THIS IS IT!
WOW THAT MUST HAVE MUST HAVE BEING TRAUMATICALLY ROMANTIC.

for just the two of us and when we were about 40, 000 feet above sea level, I brought out the ring and asked her to marry me. She said yes. The time we spent in the parachute was a memorable one.
SO PEOPLE CAN SPEND TIME TOGETHER WHILE PARACHUTING? WOW, I NEVER KNEW. LOL, HIS STUPIDITY IS STUNNING!
When we returned to Nigeria, I bought her a car - a Honda Ridgeline - she deserves it.
SO?
My wife-to-be is beautiful but above that she's beautiful on the inside. She is brillant, intelligent, generous, and an understanding woman. She's so much fun to be with.
I DOUBT.
Her name is Ijeoma Oduah
WHY THE FUCK DO WE NEED TO KNOW HER NAME FOR?
and she's from Ogbaru LGA Anambra State and she's still a student studying mass communication. I love my woman and I am going to have a loud and classy wedding very soon." ~ Kingsley Okonkwo of KC-Presh

This is one of the unhealthy things we Nigerians engage ourselves in. Why the hell do we need this? This is what is called too much information.
WILLIAM GATES is the richest man in the world and he was rich before he married his wife and you didn't hear him brag shit.
Jay Z gave Beyonce a two million dollar ring and he didn't say shit. People didn't even know he was married. It was the nosy paps that saw the ring on her finger, photographed it and went to a jeweler and asked how much it was worth. So WTF is he trying to prove? Gosh, he really needs help.

Guess what? This dude even snapped the ring or is it his girl (whichever, i still don't care). Here is the pathetic thing.....

Now this is what I call a ring worth $20, 000

And here's another one

It's obvious that these rings are classy not some cheap thing that instead of him to shut his MOUTH UP he kept the noise making. YUCK!

FIGHTING FOR A MAN: IS IT REALLY WORTH IT?

2010-02-17T23:21:00.004+01:00

Why do women do this? Seriously i don't get it. Fighting for a man? That's like making him a champion, like he's GOD'S GIFT TO WOMEN. Eww, whatever. Does it really have to do with the fact that we women are PETTY or is it that we're DESPERATE?

I was reading from one blog that SOME CHICK was fighting over a MAN with the EX of the MAN. Now, isn't this kind of STUPID? Why should a CURRENT be fighting with an EX, when the CURRENT already has the MAN and the EX don't. To start with FIGHTING FOR YOUR MAN isn't actually the PHYSICAL SIDE OF THINGS but the VERBAL and I don't mean VERBAL ABUSE.

When we FIGHT for our loved ones we look out for their best interests. We don't go about CURSING people of dashing out BLACK AND BLUE EYES (whatever's your take). We make sure that people who are out there to harm our loved ones are PUT IN THEIR PLACE.

This issue of SHE STOLE MY BOYFRIEND is some STUPID SHIT. Why? Its because nobody belongs to anybody until they are MARRIED and that too has its own you-know-what. So, if the one you ONCE LOVED or STILL LOVED can be TAKEN COMPLETELY away from you by another woman then he was never yours.

Look at it this way. Most of the people would go about fighting for the ONE THAT GOT AWAY end up waking up to the actual fact that they had already RAN THEIR COURSE and the fight was unnecessary.

LOVE is beautiful and doesn't need VIOLENCE as a CATALYST or an APHRODISIAC to make it seem interesting and fascinating. It already is. If the one you once loved got away then let then be. Don't go about telling the others after you that you were the BADDEST (sorry for the wrong superlative) chick he had ever beein with because that's just reducing your rep to that of the HOOD-RAT(or mouse to be nice) that is if you aren't already.

So my take on fight for a man.......DON'T! NEVER!! Its only going to bring you shame and disgrace. I know its CLICHE but if that man is yours, you damn well sure that he isn't going to be taken away by some STRANGE VAGINA. He might wander off but he'll surely be back.

YOU JUST HAVE TO LOVE HER

2010-02-14T22:33:00.003+01:00

Yes, i know you know. Its NNEKA. The golden girl. Well, as for moi, I'm talking about her music and what I think of if.

This song, when I first heard I was like "what is this?" then I changed the channel. It was Channel O. Honestly, I was like what's is this AFRO HAIRED CHICK wants to say that Bob Marley hasn't already said. Until ONE DAY, I was in the kitchen washing the dishes then I heard this song and I was CURIOUS then I proceeded to the sitting room. LOW and BEHOLD it was the AFRO HAIRED CHICK and I was surprised. It was also the very SONG I was like WHAT THE HELL to.

Vocally, I won't lie that she is strong. She's just on a scale of one to ten I'd give her a FIVE POINT SIX. It seems to be too subtle. I'm kind of like a sucker for power houses (Celine Dion, Onyeka Owenu, Peabo Bryson and how can I forget Miss. Whitney) but on the terms of creativity, lyrics, composition and style(which i deem UNIQUE) I'd say she's got something. Most people especially Nigerians would say WHAT IS THIS GIRL SINGING? and others might do what I initially did but if you listen very well and pay attention you'd get the message.

To me, I think she doesn't really care about what we say about her voice or her dress sense or her style of singing. I don't think she really wants to know our opinion on those things because to be honest those THINGS BELONG TO HER AND HER ALONE. But she does care about the message she is sending through her song, the way she is sending it and WHAT HER SONG MEANS TO US.

She is one of the rarest musicians Nigerians have. She damn well knows what she is doing. She, to me represents the alternative culture in Nigeria. The culture that is laid back and is sometimes beaten to submission by the popular culture already prevalent in Nigeria. From her music to her hair to her clothes and the way she carries herself speaks volumes about how deep she is and how she wants us to see her.

All and all, I'd say i'm beginning to LOVE this girl and this her song HEARTBEAT is the most priceless piece in her collection to me. Just LISTEN and you'd SEE with the MUSICAL EYE in YOU the HEARTBEAT she is talking about.

DOES THIS MAKE SENSE?

2010-02-12T15:20:00.003+01:00

Because your own strength is unequal to the task, do not assume that it is beyond the powers of man; but if anything is within the powers and province of man, believe that it is within your own compass also.
-MARCUS AURELIUS ANTONINUS

So, DOES THIS MAKE SENSE?

I HAVE TO DO THIS

2010-02-12T15:02:00.003+01:00

This post is to thank a very wonderful lady whose blog i follow.......Miss. Linda Ikeji. I was quite surprised she added my blog as some fab blogs people should check out. I hope she sees this my special post about her.
I really do appreciate it. Funny enough when she wrote it I didn't really check for mine. I was just interested in checking out the other blogs when I saw mine.

To Linda, thanks a lot sister. (and sorry i stole this pic from your site)

IS HIP HOP REALLY DEAD?

2010-02-10T22:58:00.008+01:00

I know this is quite sudden but as I was writing about Lupe Fiasco's DUMB IT DOWN, I realised how much I'd missed songs like his. I remember when hip hop was philosophical. It reminded me of the how ROCK music used to sound. Hip hop these days just focus on SEX, DRUGS, MONEY and GIRLS (who they refer to as BITCHES).

Although I respect the background of most rappers and how hip hop has raised most of the from the shackles of poverty to wealth but the fact is that most of them don't really involve themselves in hip hop. Most of them hide under the excuse of trying or introducing a new style to the sound but in the actual sense its a display of pure mediocrity. The most annoying thing is not them putting the record out but those buying it. Its like the association of the demented souls and that i tell you is a very poor thing.

In their defence of introducing new stuff into the hip hop genre, I would strongly say its a lie. WHY? Look at EMINEM (who I think is the BEST RAPPER ever but is not appreciated because of his race) he brought his own style which was fast rapping in a rhythmic way. BONE THUGS 'N' HARMONY, those I say were the fastest rappers ever. Twista had nothing on them. SNOOP DOGG, laid back. Easy going just flowing was his trademark style. NAS made us, the new generation, to see the essence of hip hop which was to talk about the ills in the society.

Hip hop as a genre is just like Rock. The founding fathers and disciples made sure that the music focused on things that were strictly artistic and sometimes dark and psychotic. Hip hop was deep. It was a song you bobbed your head to. It was like poetry put in motion and beats to come to life. It wasn't about the amount of chicks you had sex with or the drugs to took or the money you threw around but something more than that.

Hip hop gave so many youths a sound regardless of where you were from or what you looked like. Even people who claimed to be hardcore rock fans saw some similarity of hip hop with rock and embraced it even if not publicly. Hip hop was the genre that we knew made us see more than just the surface of things.

I understand the trying to make it commercial but being too commercial is like losing the way and missing the point. Its like rejecting the NORM and accepting the CON. The hip hop right now is like insulting the listeners. Yes, that's the word INSULTING. Modern day hip hop is an insulting piece of shit.

For me being born in the eighties this crap I listen to today is a total disgrace and it shows how most of our artistes are missing the point and becoming cluesless. Hip hop has now turned to a side show nonsense. *sighs* i really miss GOOD QUALITY MUSIC. God, when are those days going to come again?

Sorry if i didn't stick to the point but seriously in my mind i think HIP HOP is dead. Some say its sleeping while others well, are in the demented region.

Before i sign off i want to give you a list of my favourite rappers of all time. If you don't agree with then its your cup of tea. I don't fucking care.
EMINEM
NAS
LUPE FIASCO
KRS ONE (though i've listened to one of his song and i tell you its amazing)
SNOOP DOGG
BONE THUGS N HARMONY
HHP (southie boy)
PRO KID (")
MI
TALIB KWELI
PROVERB
MOS DEF

JAY Z
KANYE WEST (college dropout was off the hook)
MIKE SHINODA (i really don't know how you spell his name but he is the rapper for linkin park and fort minor but he is here based on his work with fort minor)
TU PAC(just for respect. we wasn't really all that)
MODENINE
ONE SOUTH AFRICAN DUDE THAT IN THE VIDEO HAD ATAP FALLING FROM A TOP WINDOW.
DIAMS(a french chick)
DA L.E.S
MAGGZ( just because of one song though. the dude has got mad delivery skills)
And some others i can't remember for now but i'd get back to you later. *yawn* so sleepy right now.

DUMB IT DOWN- LUPE FIASCO

2010-02-10T21:26:00.005+01:00

Its an amazing piece from Mr. Lupe Fiasco. This song to me is one of the many wonders from Mr. Lupe Fiasco. This song has three verses and three choruses. Each of the chorus centres on the fact that Lupe should "dumb it down" meaning that he should stop being all philosophical or educational or insightful.

I felt each of the chorus very well even the verses but his system of rapping and lyrricism was way over my league so I'd stick with the choruses.

The First chorus;
You goin' over niggas' heads Lu (Dumb it down)
means that he isn't coming to their level i.e the level of the people in the streets.
They tellin' me that they don't feel you (Dumb it down)
the hood/streets don't understand him and don't like him.
We ain't graduate from school nigga (Dumb it down)
already self explanatory
Them big words ain't cool nigga (Dumb it down)

they don't like the vocabulary in his lyricism
Yeah I heard Mean And Vicious nigga (Dumb it down)
they already heard his song Mean and Vicious (though I've not heard the song)
Make a song for the bitches nigga (Dumb it down)
he should make a song about women
We don't care about the weather nigga (Dumb it down)
already explanatory.
You'll sell more records if you (Dumb it down)
already self explanatory.

In the each of the statements the phrase "dumb it down" was repeated.

This first phrase goes to talk about what most people felt about his first album FOOD & LIQUOR. Which was critically acclaimed and showed a different side to hip hop which was more than the vulgar lyrics and booty popping since in most hip hop songs and videos.

The Second chorus;
the voice that was used by Lupe sounded like that of a white man
You've been shedding too much light Lu (Dumb it down)
You make'em wanna do right Lu (Dumb it down)
They're getting self-esteem Lu (Dumb it down)
These girls are trying to be queens Lu (Dumb it down)
They're trying to graduate from school Lu (Dumb it down)
They're starting to think that smart is cool Lu (Dumb it down)
They're trying to get up out the hood Lu (Dumb it down)
I'll tell you what you should do (Dumb it down)

This chorus was based on the fat that Lupe somehow after the release of his debut album started this NERDINESS IS COOL campaign somehow. It kind seemed okay for most hood kids to do right especially girls and leave these hoods and make something off of themselves.

the Third chorus:
this part was more of a direct confrontation to him (Lupe). It talks about him not talking about his cars but about his skateboards and other nerdy stuff. It also made fun of him being on the GQ men of the year's list in 2006. It also highlighted the fact that he dosen't do the obvious in his videos like pouring champagne on chicks and other stuffs
You putting me to sleep nigga (Dumb it down)
That's why you ain't popping in the streets nigga (Dumb it down)
You ain't winning no awards nigga (Dumb it down)
Robots and skateboards nigga? (Dumb it down)
GQ Man Of The Year G? (Dumb it down)
Shit ain't rocking over here B (Dumb it down)
Won't you talk about your cars nigga? (Dumb it down)
And what the fuck is goyard nigga (Dumb it down)
Make it rain for the chicks (Dumb it down)
Pour champagne on a bitch (Dumb it down)
What the fuck is wrong with you? (Dumb it down)
How can I get on a song with you? (Dumb it down)

The overall of this song is based on the response he got from his debut album, especially the negative response. If you haven't heard then i recommend it to me its like one of the best hip hop songs of this millennium. Though this album THE COOL was very very much underappreciated. Its better than that thing Lil' Wayne made what the fuck is it called again .......THE CARTER THREE. That was some fucking demented hip hop album and so many demented souls were bobbing their heads to and buying it. Very sad.

Take care.

ANDROGYNE; THE MISCONCEPTION

2010-02-09T23:19:00.007+01:00

An androgyne in terms of gender identity, is a person who does not fit cleanly into the typical masculine and feminine gender roles of their society. They may also use the term ambigender to describe themselves. Many androgynes identify as being mentally "between" woman and man, or as entirely genderless. This could be in fashion or in biology. Yes, I said it, BIOLOGY.

Most people think that being an androgyne means that you are either a HERMOPHRODITE or a HOMOSEXUAL or a BISEXUAL which is not true most of the time. Most androgynes in the world today hide their identities because of the fear of being judged or misinterpreted.

Before i got to the second paragrapgh above i made mention of BIOLOGY having a role in determining whether or not a person is going to be ANDROGYNOUS. Well there is something known as BRAIN SEX or in other words BRAIN GENDER. This is a situation which determines whether or not a child is going to be a TOMBOY or SISSY (androgynous characteristics). This is caused by the amount of hormone (TESTOSTERONE or ESTROGEN) secreted in the brain of the FOETUS.

In most babies, the "APPROPRIATE" hormone is secreted in the brain making a boy to have a MALE BRAIN and a girl, a FEMALE BRAIN but in other cases, the reverse is the case. People like these end up growing up as TOMBOYS or SISSIES.

The theory is also backed up by the length of our fingers. A girl with a female brain's INDEX FINGER is always longer than her RING finger and for boys with a male brain, the INDEX finger is shorter than the RING finger.

TOMBOYS fingers are like that of a typical boy and SISSIES fingers are also like that of a typical girl. This goes to show that most androgynes don't choose to be but are born that way.

Factors also influence people to become androgynes but it is very very very rare compared the ones born to be. Also most androgynes are forced by the factors around them that there is no place for them on this planet. Its more like there isn't any place in between, you are either a boy or a girl but most of the time nature doesn't really pan out the way we'd expect.

I was/am(whichever is correct) an androgyne. i also have the biological backing. My INDEX finger shorter than my Ring finger. I don't think a hundred percent like the normal female. I am a proud androgyne but MOST TIMES, I am being told that I am not a man. The thing that this people refuse to get is that I am not trying to be one. I was born with a male brain but people just don't get. Well, I didn't really did at first because I thought that external factors like growing up with guys made me who I am but until i started reading stuffs on BRAIN SEX and ANDROGYNY, I realised that I was actually born this way. So, PHYSICALLY, I am not a man but PSYCHOLOGICALLY- I guess from all indications it seems that I am.

Don't get it twisted too that I am some transsexual male trapped in a woman's body---HELL to the NO! I am so NOT! I am just a girl who is not a 100% female but I love my physical gender. To me i think I am lucky to be enjoying the best of both worlds. I love to buy and wear feminine clothes though I'm not too big on skirts and make-up but the rest I love even five-si inch heels. They are my favorite. Though some people would say I still look like I had put on some guy's outfit, its the fact that i can't help what i think. If my interpretation is like that of a dude thetn i guess is my MALE BRAIN coming into action. I also love to care about my hair. Its one thing I know that is a 100% feminine about me though I do have this male i-don't-give-a-shit attitude toward it but I know its just me being human. I am also HETEROSEXUAL. I am attracted to men only. I daydream of them only.

Most people try to make me feel inferior. Like I'm wrong for being who I am. As if I created myself..mmmm... IGNORANCE on display(of course they never admit it). Does being an androgyne make me less of a woman? ABSOLUTELY NOT and neither doe it make me much of a man but it does make me understand both sexes and this is what i term as PRICELESS.

SO WHAT, if you are an androgyne? If you are out there and people are try to fit you into a box like they do me especially if you are HETEROSEXUAL and not a HERMOPHRODITE then dearies, IGNORE them because they IGNORED KNOWLEDGE and live your lives the best way you can. If they don't like it then the can go HANG themselves.

friendship-how it fades

2010-01-09T21:34:00.003+01:00

what's it about it that makes people feel the need to be in it. sometimes i get it and sometimes I'm like why? why? the hell do i need people. is it that most of us have this innate desire to be a part of something or we just do it because it is programmed in our DNA to socialize and at the end of the day we just don't know how we got to be with people. sometimes i think it is necessary especially when all is not feeling well but there is a catch which is the fact that as we grow old we tend to meet different people along the way and the people we were once close are not like it used to be anymore. this is quite scary because this shows that the friends you have today may not be the ones you have tomorrow and this i say is alot of a fright. that means a friend of mine i might have shared alot with might not be that close to me tomorrow. that's harsh. life is though but i never really understood the magnitude of things until right now. i love my friends and to break form them is like i don't even want to think about it though my mum once told me that when friendships fade and we move on we don't really feel it. its like we are already programmed to just go with the flow. the truth that most of us really get faced with is that at different points in our lives our priorities change and to that result most of our friends have to change because our points of view don't really mesh well like it used to. i most of us would say we still have the same friends we had since we were kids but if you look closely its not like the way it used to be. either we are putting up with each other for the sake of history we share or just because our priorities are still the same. either ways, there's still some strain somewhere. hmm, life is strange, tough and unexpected. right now I'm taking a look at my life from my nursery to primary to secondary to university and to be honest my priorities, friends and almost everything except my name and family and DNA and the unchangeables have changed. wow, that's cold.

nigeria! nigeria!! nigeria!!! how many times did i call you?

2009-12-02T10:57:00.006+01:00

this country sometimes makes me sick but what can i say huh? i still love it but the truth there is that this things we call leaders and leaders of tomorrow are all confused jumbos waiting to eat there own share of the national cake or should i say moi-moi(bean pudding).

Nigeria is going to the world cup, yee-pee!!!!!!! like i care. the time i did they where messing up and now by the stroke of luck they are going and like that's a big deal, i wonder. they had to wait for the sluggish and God-knows-what-the-future-holds for them in football, Kenyan football team to show up so that they could score some mistake goals and go to the world cup.

now the problem i have with this is not the fact that we are going but what the so called leaders of the NFA(Nigeria Football Association) are saying. they said that they do not want the Amodu guy (coach of the national team) who helped their sorry ass of a team to qualify to the world cup to coach them to the African cup of nations let alone the world cup. can you imagine the insult. as to God who made me, what the hell was that? guess what was their reason...in order for Nigeria to have a chance in the world cup. like as if those things they parade as players have a chance at anything as regards to their careers. i do not mean to be a self absorbed individual but do we seriously think that we are gonna get anywhere this mediocrity. football is the only thing Nigeria seems to be good at in terms of sports and with the kind of players we have then I'm sorry i think we suck in it already.

now they want a foreign coach when Samson Siasia took the U-20 and U-17 team to the finals of the world cup and yet is still not considered. that dude is the angel that we've been praying for but i think that our so called NFA execs are in need of concentrated sulphuric acid to wash their eyes, i guess. not that I'm campaigning for him but Samson is great. Amodu, i think is the go to guy for qualification, then Eguavoen is for nations cup and my love, Siasia is for the world cup and if NFA is not ready to hire Scholari then i think they should forget it.

as for the players, my advice to them it, honor before money. why i said that, simple. because it would be the only thing that they'd be remembered by long after they are gone. money unless you were one time the richest person in the world would not make you live forever but your legacy. so if i were them I'd think of what i want to be remembered by, which is either a member of the first African team that won the world cup or just a regular player who's pocket is a fat like every other player out there. how i wish Odemwingie had a better platform to portray what a great player he really is. oh well one the shenanigans of being a Nigerian i guess.

some nigerian artists...............argh!

2009-12-01T14:22:00.002+01:00

as a full blooded and proud Nigerian i must say there are some things that you just listen to and want to kill the person who sang it the very instant you do. i mean, what the f*** is the world turning into these days seriously i don't get it.
y would you call yourself a musician that is meant to entertain me and you bore, you know what scratch that because bore is too much of a nice thing to do. how about pissing the shit out of me huh?

if i start mentioning names i won't leave here today but to start off there's this dude called TIMAYA. not trying to be rude or anything but i do not know why he is famous seriously. he sings crap. i'm not interested in any other thing except his music those other things are his problems. i respect that fact why he got into music. i sympathize with him but really hasn't he made enough money yet from the sales of his first album from what i recollect a lot of motor park boys and bus drivers bought the album and some of my demented friends(lol, the are so gonna kill me if they read this) so why the prevalence of mediorcity over value and taste over succession of organised sounds that is pleasing to the ear?

now i just read he has released a new single off his upcoming album, third album and guess what he named it? plantain boy. yep! you heard right plan-tain boy. how sick can a person get. doesn't he have people that tell him to diversify his music. he should know that nigerian is not a big motorpark where whatever he sings would be accepted. i seriously think that we need some harsh critics like Simon Cowell to put him in his place. tomorrow he'll be complaining of piracy, why won't there be when the songs you make are for the same people who prefer to buy pirated copies because its cheaper?

my advice for him is this think before you sing or shut the hell up. simple. we don't need rubbish in our ears all in the name of music. i'm telling you i hear that mosiquito buzzing in my ear i am so gonna squash it. crap! what rubbish.

russian roulette-my november song and other shenaingans attached

2009-12-01T12:56:00.005+01:00

i know most people will be like blah what the f*** but to me this was the song for me. compared to the trash that beyonce, alicia keys, lady gaga, lil' wayne and Chris brown dolled out for us this year this is by far the best. can you imagine the tragic nonsense Alicia keys expects us to be stuck with? i seriously do not know why these people are afraid of going outside their box. rock stars do it everyday though it doesn't come out great all the time but at least they tried. do they think that we are that stupid? they come into the industry hungry without food and shelter and nobody who cares about them. we embrace them, love them, give them food to eat and guess what they do; turn their backs on us and force feed us with the crap they call music. i rather listen to kumbaya than the trash I'm subjected to these days. most of them forget that we are their customers and we need to be satisfied or else........!

come to think of it, i think we are already too stupid to know that right? look at us.... i mean most of us are more interested in daydreaming about them. they feed us with good looks and nudity with a slap of trashy music in the face and we say thank you. we always fail to realize the obvious until we are broke and looking for money to feed ourselves. seriously what are we thinking when we go about praising lil' wayne for a job woefully done? i don't get it. why the hell should i call you a pro when you can't rap a sentence that will want me to be interested in the other things you have to say?

back to the subject rihanna i must say though that i was not her fan from the outset, has really grown as an artist. when she newly came in with her music of the sun album she like every other Caribbean who was trying to keep it real with her reggae roots. it was an average album then she came with the a girl like me which was rhythm and blues catchy but okay. all and all I'd saId it was nice. then the breakthrough....good girl gone bad was a pop album with hints of rock and r'n'b to this i said rihanna had arrived.

now rated r I've heard bits and pieces of the entire album and i say its a rock album with hints of reggae and pop. now this is what i call diversity. she is trying new things and to me whether it sells or not shows that she is out there to entertain us though i think she's still using the cheap route of sex sells to promote her album.
Russian roulette to me is a very deep song and to me it made sense. the lyrics were very metaphorical and it had to do with a struggle, fight etc. she nailed it here and i don't care what anybody thinks of this song like i said before this is the best thing that rihanna has ever opened her mouth and sang. this song is amazing. its simple and short not like the too long and boring bullshit that beyonce or lady gaga subjects us to......very agonizing.
to me great songs don't take too much time, they are not long. they come, touch you and go within a matter of five minutes. finally i can now say that rihanna now has a classic song that will never die even in ages to come. Russian roulette is now one of the greatest songs of all time. and if you were wondering of chris brown........he's doomed not because that he's an abusive prick but because he was never meant to be a musician and he was, he needs a new management......FAST!

the clothes they are making these days

2009-12-01T12:10:00.004+01:00

i was watching some talk show at home one time and it was about infidelity. you know the usual, men trying to defend themselves and women putting and fixing the blame on the men. then a dude said but "the clothes they are making the days for women aren't even helping matters".of course i thought the dude was a complete asshole for saying that as an excuse but come to think of it, it seems the fashion industry is more interested in taking the clothes off women than putting it on them. what i mean huh?
look at most of the designers, i know they all pride themselves of the fact that they can make us drool over their creations to the point that we starve to have their items, they also are encouraging the idea of less is more in the sense of less clothes covering your body parts the more sexy you are perceived.
i do not mean to be old school or ancient but don't we for one second look at the time of our grandparents and wish we could dress like those women- where they wore seductive looking but yet covering clothes and still the men wanted more. the reason the men wanted more was because they were tastefully dressed with a lot of class revealing a little but the right amount of skin which kept the men interested as in the thought of "i think there's more from where that came from". 'that' being the little skin displayed. this skin could be a little bit of a litttle cleavage, legs, neck, collar bones name it but rightfully done.
but now what i see are breasts not cleavages, dressed that grab the asses and do not get me started on the transparent crap they branded with the name 'fishnets'. everybody on the street is trying to look like the very same commercial sex workers they condemn and think they are better than and to think of celebrities aren't helping matters with their sense of style because these are the very same people we copy. i am 20 and i have friends who look up to rihanna for style tips from hair to clothes. to me i think her present haircut is amazing but her outfits are no different from the prostitutes that stay under the bridge at rumuola by night the only difference is the price tag and to me that is rather appalling.
oh how i wish we could go back to those days. its like the fashion industry is saying that men should look over fully clothed and women....oh well if you have a rag that can go round your body as long as your nipples and vagina are covered then you're okay.......argh we desperately need a change and i mean now.
